Everybody knows Col. I~ngersoll's repu.
Triton as a lawyer and a politician, but
every one cannot speak of his personality
truly. Take the word ''friend," for In
stance. The broadness OF the term can
not be better shown than by something
he said to a man one day last week.
They were talking Of the prosaic matter
of new shirts" when the colonel de
clared he was not going to have another
made for him until he could find a shirt
maker who was honest enough to give the
woman who did the work the $3.50 each
that he was willing to allow.
'I'm afraid you'll have to wait some
time" said his companion. "Shlrtmak-
ers' fortunes are not built that way"
''Then IN wait" said the colonel.
'Henceforth l wear no shirt until / have
seen the woman who makes it, and she
has told me herself that she got paid for
her work"
This, then, is what the word "friend, -
as applied above, No man can say
that Col. Ingersoll ever paid him less than
his work was worth, even in the most lib
eral sense of the word, or that he was
ever asked for o good turn and was re-
fused. 1t is not to his friends that this
big hearted mar is O friend, but to all
honest men and women.-Fannie B. Mer-
rIn in New York World.

Forged autographs are a snare to be
avoided by the wary. In Paris they are
largely fabricated, and there you may
buy, at no small outlay indeed, letters Of
Pascal, or of Henry ", or Marguerite de
Valois, or indeed of whom you please.
Letters IN pale ink, on ancient paper,
which almost defy scrutiny and deceive
men the most expert. Science, chemistry
and the subtle arts of photography will
all be employed and combined against
you, OF you will, perhaps, be tempted by
a low price to buy Victor Hugo's or
George Sands handwriting for a couple
Of francs, or for a couple of louis T. ose of
De Musset or ~Theophile Gautier, AMI both
shall alike be forgeries. For Paris is one
of the workshops of the world, where he
who has money shall be able to procure
all that money may buy, and yet shall he
fall a victim to the arts of the truqueur.

Tho Great Novelist. Nothsr.

Charles Dickens inherited from his
mother a keen appreciation of the droll
and of the pathetic, as also considerable
dramatic talent. She is described as a
little woman, who had been very nice
looking in her youth, having bright hazel
eyes and being n thoroughly good natured,
compauionable body. She possessed an
extraordinary sense of the ludicrous and
her power Of imitation was something as
tonishing. On entering a room she almost
unconsciously took an inventory OF its
contents, and, If anything happened to
strike her a. out of plnce or ridiculous,
she would afterward describe it in the
quaintest possible manner. In like man.
ner she noted the personal peculiarities Of
her friends and acquaintances.-Philade
phia Times.

The paper bottle is the latest evidence
that we live in an age of paper. Car
wheels, barrels, pals, washbowls and
racing boats are now made from paper,
or q substance that can be only SO named,
though it is rather a papier mache than q
texture that has been produced by the
complicated appliances of a paper mill.
The paper bottle is the invention of a
manufacturer of ink and bluing at Chi
cago. 1t has these advantages over the
glass bottle: Less likely to break; much
lighter weight; impenetrability to frost;
lower cost; no packing material needed
in cases, If properly prepared. The only
advantage possessed by the glass bottle
is transparency. A decided preference
for the paper bottle is predicted by the
American grocer. And speaking Of bot
ties, why is it that the cylinder shape is
so largely in fashion? An immense saw
ing of room, and consequently in cost of
carriage, would be effected, were square
bottles used, and the same might be said
of cans, in which articles of food or for
other purposes are packed. The square
a has made great gains in the favor of
packers within q few years, but the cyl
inder is still largely used.-Boston Tran
script.

1--WE don't nave any more tailors or
dressmakers In New York; said O drum
mer from Gotham, as he talked Of the
looser trousers, which are getting into
fashion, "but the 'modistes' and artists
are doing the business this spring. There
are no more tailors. but artist cutters,
who fashion trousers only, or make O
specially of Albert coats, or are noted fol
their waistcoats, are planted thickly along
Fifth avenue. A British swell and q New
York got up man are two distinct animals,
European tailors never indulge in make
up. II q man has no more shoulders than
a Boston bean boy, strawberries he goes
in England. But in New York young
Shmpkins goes to his artist, and that in
dividual makes a broad shouldered, full
breasted thing Of him-pads his bad hip,
thntches him on the shoulder, gives him a
swell front and a bay window behind.
The Now York tailor has more right
to the word artist, after all, thar the
usual clothier. He does modelling and
architectural work that Is not discredit-
able. There are some tnilors here who
are emulating the deceased Poole, Of Lon
don, aud are making themselves very solo
with their customers by loaning them
money, INT in retur some OF the impe-
cunious swells nave had Brother Shears
on the avenue behind their t~rotters. One
of the fraternity was greatly incensed
that he had not been invited to his pa
irons wedding.

A note gives a statement of the income

he kept a record Of 1t up to the end Of
1859, n the largest sum received in apy
year to that date was So, 500. This was
principally for the poets and Poetry of
Europe; original composition brought
him much less, although in 1859 some of
his most notable things were on the mar
ket, includings "Eyangeline'' and 1.-THE
Golden Legend" In fact he had reached
fame long before he began to realize even
moderate fortune. The lack of an inter
national copyright is supposed to have cost
him about $4,000. To an English lady
who complained Of American pirates he

A special from Ottawa says: In the neighborhood of one hundred Mormons from Salt Lake City are making appli- cation to the dominion government for homestead lands in the vicinity of Med- icine Hat Northwest Territory, with . view of forming 8 settlement for the faithful The matter is now under con- sideration as to whether 1t is desirable to encourage the emigration of that class of settlers. The minister of justice strongly opposes the introduction of such a sect Referring to the matter, the Toronto News says The experience of the American government m dealing with the people of Utah ought to make our government extremely cautious about insisting on the observance of our law at the outset, as the only condition on which their presence will be tolerated. If they once obtain local ascendency and are able to manage things their own way it will be matter of great difficulty to assert the supremacy of the law.

Tha dying of tomatoes for export is likely to become an impnstant industry in this vicinity. In Italy an ex,ensive business is carried on in drying tomatoea They are dried in preference t., being canned. The tomatoes are allowed to remain on the vines until they are quite ripe, when they are picked and pressed into bags made of coarse cloth. which al. lows no pulp to press through. while the seeds and skins are retained. The pulp is then spread out thinly on oloth, boards or shallow dishes and exposed to the sun to dry. Wher it has become quite dry it is broken out fine or ground and put into boxes or bags and sent to market. It is largely used in soups but much ot it is employed as we do tomatoes pre- served in tin cans or other cans.
